Many of them have struggled to find joy in reading or have never had access to books that truly speak to their interests. When the new titles arrived, students immediately began choosing ones that \"felt like them,\" and the room filled with curiosity and conversations about characters, plots, and genres. These books created a positive reading culture where every student—no matter their level—felt welcomed and encouraged to grow.\r\n\r\nThe impact has gone far beyond literacy skills. Having fresh, engaging books helped students build self-esteem, discover new interests, and experience the pride that comes from finishing a book independently. For many, these moments became stepping-stones toward stronger academic habits and a renewed belief in themselves as learners. Your generosity helped create a warm, supportive environment where reading feels meaningful, empowering, and truly enjoyable for all of my students.","fullyFundedDate":1663705196109,"projectUrl":"project/read-all-about-it/6602656/","projectTitle":"Read All About It","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Barry","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp5685685_272x272.png?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1534178774978","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/foutstanding"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_103692","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":25,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":92,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":60,"percentWhite":11,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":3,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"6 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR District Record","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"TOWN","ncesMetroType":null},"inStateSupporters":31.1,"schoolId":103692,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Success Academy Palmetto Education Center on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Success Academy Palmetto Education Center","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/south-carolina/marion-county-school-district/success-academy-palmetto-education-center/103692"}
